Background This was the first Memorial Cup championship played outside Toronto and was set for Shea's Amphitheatre in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Fort William had defeated the Kenora Thistles and then played Toronto Aura Lee, winners of the George Richardson Memorial Trophy as Eastern Canadian champions, which they did in a one game playoff 5-3. To save money, the game was held in Fort William, with the winner to continue west to Winnipeg where the Memorial Cup would be contested. Toronto had expected to easily win, and there were reports their luggage had already been sent forward before their loss to Fort William.Lapp Macaulay 1997 19 Regina, winners of the Abbott Cup as Western Canadian champions, had defeated the Calgary Hustlers in an interprovincial series, and then the University of Manitoba Junior Hockey Team in a two-game total goal series; Manitoba won the first game 4-1, while Regina won the second 5-0, winning the series with 6 goals to 4.
